I'm not sure that's an answer to the problem. What we need is not more machines, but dedicated buildbot maintainers. That also means being willing to diagnose issues themselves rather than kindly offer SSH access, by the way ;-) (I can't speak for Victor, but being offered SSH access when I point out an issue on a remote machine is really a depressing answer to get, as far as I'm concerned) And, we also need some people to look after the master configuration and status - yes, that would have been me, but I've not been very motivated recently :-) Regards Antoine. _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
